I'm sure most of us have heard the story by now. How would you have reacted? Is there a legal defense to "abandon" your patient in this situation?
Would you have stayed or warded off the attacker?
- If the patient was stable (no life threatening injuries/conditions)
- If the patient was unstable (with life threatening injuries conditions)
Just looking for opinions here. Also, a citation if anyone has it, of a law that would protect you from abandonment in this case.
